What is your favorite game of the Iowa vs UM series since 1980

Grow up Peter Pan

Since I was only 4 in 1985 I can't say that game, although it's one of my favorite games to read about. Everybody that was at that game has an awesome story to tell. For me it would be 2002. A close game at the half, but once we got our break in the 3rd quarter off of the muffed punt it was all gravy from there. The only complaint I had was Mark Jones's comment in the first quarter when Banks started out so hot passing. "Call Brad Banks Doppler because he's on radar!" Just pathetic Mark, pathetic. *walks away shaking head in disgust*

i just REALLY got into football in the last 4 years or so...so for me it will have to be last season. blackout, night game, homecoming. good time
 


Any game in which Iowa beats Michigan is my favorite. 1981 was big but IMHO no match for this one. Watch the clip in its entirety to see how gigantic this victory was. And the young kicker, from Glenview, Ill., praying for "strength and direction." We could all use some of that in our lives.

Best game was 1985...probably one of the top 10 games in Big Ten history -- period.

Favorite game for me though was 1991.
